“I know in my heart, I'm more woman than anyone!”Cass from Distant Echoes joins us for this joyful Christmas masterpiece, led by a heroic and unapologetic trans woman in a cast of complex unhoused characters. We explore filmmaker Satoshi Kon's unparalleled filmography–including the deep empathy that led him to tell a magical story about the queer and homeless experience–along with the imaginative animation from Madhouse, and the reclamation of Hana as a trans character in modern translations despite early missteps.Film Release: November 8, 2003For the next couple months, we're doing a biweekly Special Presentation miniseries featuring a selection of non-Pixar movies & TV aimed at younger audiences and families featuring clear, unafraid, and unambiguous depictions of queerness.Satoshi Kon's final blog post (Kon's Tone)Interview: Satoshi Kon (AnimeNewsNetwork)Interview with Satoshi Kon, Director of Perfect Blue (perfectblue.com)Satoshi Kon: The Illusionist by Andrew Osmond — out of print (check your library system!)Tokyo Godathers, 2020 GKIDS re-release special features:— Making Of Tokyo Godfathers— The Process of Animation— An Interview with Shakina NayfackPart of ⁠The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠ | Patreon⁠E-mail us: pixarpodcast@gmail.comMore from ⁠Doug⁠More from ⁠Derek⁠Theme song features: “Stasis” by Eagle-Eyed Tiger | ⁠SourceClosing song: “No.9” by Keiichi Suzuki & Moonriders

Emilio, Julian, and Madeline wrap up their “Holiday Suggestion/Gift Box” mini-cycle with Satoshi Kon's penultimate work, “Tokyo Godfathers” (2003). Rather than gold, frankincense, and myrrh, our three hosts come bearing different personal histories with the art form of anime. They discuss the benefits and challenges of this storytelling medium, and dive into the burning questions: were the actions that ostracized our protagonists really that bad? What do the serendipitous events of this movie mean? And, of course, could this film have been made as live action?If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.  This really helps us find new listeners and grow!Follow us on IG and TikTok: @sleeplesscinematicpodSend us an email at sleeplesscinematicpod@gmail.comOn Letterboxd?

Tokyo Christmas: A Binge Movies Holiday Special:  This holiday season, join Jason for a heartfelt and thought-provoking solo review of Tokyo Godfathers, Satoshi Kon's animated masterpiece. Set against the chaotic backdrop of Christmas in Tokyo, this unconventional holiday story follows three unlikely heroes—a homeless alcoholic, a former drag queen, and a runaway teen—on a journey of redemption, connection, and the search for a miracle. Jason delves into the film's rich themes of found family, societal marginalization, and the unexpected grace found in the most unlikely places. With a blend of personal reflection and sharp analysis, this episode unpacks how Tokyo Godfathers captures the messy, magical beauty of the season while challenging traditional notions of holiday storytelling. Plus, Jason addresses rumors concerning alleged changes coming to the last video store in the universe.

In this episode we make a deep dive into Kon Satoshi's 2003 Christmas romp (?), Tokyo Godfathers. We focus especially on the dramatic tension between what characters imagine themselves to be and the reality of who they are--and how, sometimes, reality has a weird habit of slipping into fantasy.

We're podcasters, not action movie stars! That's right, we're finally breaking the seal on one of Nick's favourite directors with our second holiday episode: Satoshi Kon's TOKYO GODFATHERS from 2003.It's probably Kon's most conventional film, but he brings in his reality-blurring style nonetheless. We're discussing John Ford's influence, society's marginalized populations, and the emotions we dip into when we're trying to mask or find love.Nick gets deep into how the realism is enhanced & broken with animation and sound design flourishes, and Erin has a Baileys update! Plus, we're speculating about what happens to these characters after the cameras stop rolling, a testament to how fully-realized these titular Godfathers are.Next time: our 2024 in review! So just watch every movie that came out this year and you'll be prepped.

Imagine uncovering the magic of Satoshi Kon's 'Tokyo Godfathers', a film where humor and heart converge in the bustling streets of Tokyo. That's exactly what we're doing in this month's edition of 'International Feature'. Together, we confront our initial doubts about older anime and celebrate the timeless charm of this 2003 classic.As we discuss this unconventional Christmas story, we unravel the intricate dynamics between three compelling characters and their miraculous journey with an unexpected child. The film weaves themes of homelessness and family estrangement into a tapestry that resonates with universal appeal. We acknowledge its emotional depth and character development and marvel at Satoshi Kon's ability to balance humor and darker themes, crafting a narrative that's both entertaining and thought-provoking. Our take on how Tokyo Godfathers compares to other holiday films adds a fresh perspective to the season's lineup.We're inviting everyone to join our growing community, with plenty of bonus content available and special perks for our Patreon supporters. With new episodes dropping every Wednesday, there's always something to look forward to.Letterbox'd Synopsis:  On Christmas Eve, three homeless people living on the streets of Tokyo discover a newborn baby among the trash and set out to find its parents.

Tis the season to discuss sad-man holiday movies and this year we're kicking things off with 2003's "Tokyo Godfathers," written and directed by Satoshi Kon.In addition to talking about this urban holiday odyssey. we also discuss: Christmas in Japan; fried turkey; the concept of God; godfathers; and too many Tom anecdotes.

Traditions make the holiday season what it is. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire. A treasured decoration hanging in a place of honor on the tree. The annual viewing of Stanley Kubrick's psycho-sexual thriller Eyes Wide Shut.Maybe you don't venture outside the lines quite that much, but Milwaukee Film's "Season's Screenings" holiday series sure does. In honor of the adventurous range of selections being shown at the Oriental Theatre through Jan. 1, Dori and Kpolly have a spirited conversation about what we watch around this time of year, roast a few and unwrap the ones they might not be quite as familiar with (perhaps Tangerine or Tokyo Godfathers).To see the full lineup of films, along with links to purchase tickets, go to our story on the Radio Milwaukee website.

They call them the Godfathers of Tokyo…and we call him the KING of TIKTOK (in an old man newscaster voice) - Reece Feldman joins us to chat about Satoshi Kon's beautiful Christmas fable about a trio of unforgettable characters on the fringes of society. We talk about how animation is truly a medium and NOT a genre, as evidenced by this film. We talk about Ice Age (another animated movie where outsiders care for a baby). We talk about whether or not David might get roped into watching Ice Age a million times if his daughter finds out about it. And we talk about David's pitch for a Cheaper by the Dozen spoof called “Cheaper by the Cousin”…?

The nerds discuss Satoshi Kon's Tokyo Godfathers because who cares if it's not Christmas anymore! Thank You ALL for Helping Support Us! Visit Our Website

Satoshi Kon's seminal 2003 film Tokyo Godfathers explores the touching stories of three homeless people who have created a found family on the streets of Japan. While not as fantastical or surreal as Kon's other work, the film still indulges in the fantastical with a series of charming miracles and coincidences that befall the main characters. Tokyo Godfathers tackles a variety of taboo subjects in both Japan and the wider world: homelessness, sex work, organized crime, queer identities, alcohol abuse, immigration, and more with extraordinary sympathy. We recommend this film for everyone's regular Christmas viewings.

What makes for a particularly compelling anime movie? Ionatan and Ravi discuss how they approach critically watching films compared to television series before giving their personal recommendations for the best standalone movies that the medium has to offer. They cover a pair of Satoshi Kon works in 'Tokyo Godfathers' and 'Perfect Blue,' Mamoru Hosoda's heartfelt story of parenthood in 'Wolf Children,' and Masaaki Yuasa's take on a Tomihiko Morimi novel in 'The Night is Short, Walk on Girl' among various other picks.

It's the Cinema Smorgasbord HOLIDAY SPECIAL (with a touch of Cinema Fantastica) where we're once again traveling to the 2021 edition of the Weihnachtsfilmfestival (Christmas Film Festival) in Berlin, Germany where we're checking out 2003's TOKYO GODFATHERS and THE WOLF OF SNOW HOLLOW from 2020. Enjoy and we'll be back in the new year, jerks! The post Episode 202 – The Cinema Smorgasbord Holiday Special – Tokyo Godfathers (2003) & The Wolf of Snow Hollow (2020) first appeared on Cinema Smorgasbord.

[School of Movies 2023] One of only FOUR movies directed by the all-too-soon-departed anime darling Satoshi Kon (along with Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress and Paprika), this is by far and away his most heartfelt, funny, camp and soulful tale, and it is most definitely Christmassy in nature, considering it concerns three impoverished homeless people and their desperate attempts to protect and ferry back to her parents a holy infant, so tender and mild. But as well as being a fair and compassionate story of the destitute, this film has an exceedingly rare trans heroine in the shape of Hana, a hot mess who nonetheless has the most determined and forthright of dispositions. Together with the alcoholic Gin and the runaway girl Miyuki, they experience a series of unlikely coincidences that require them to do the right thing in order to reverse an interconnected web of hilariously bad situations. No matter how lonely and depressed a viewer might feel at the beginning there is no way someone can reach the end without smiling from their very core. This somewhat obscure 2003 Holiday parable is deserving of its cult status. This episode was commissioned by Alejandra Vargas & Joe G.
